The most positive review

21 grams the movie was such a beautifully constructed story.
It had the rawest of emotions that are intense.
Some may find the content a bit heavy but I thought it was pure craft.
The way the story unfolds into each other is fabulous.
It’s a film about the basics of human nature.
21 grams is the weight of your soul apparently once it leaves your body when you die.
